Let’s guide you inland, in-depth, to off-the-beaten-track rural villages.

Luxuriant paddy fields, untamed wildlife, secret ponds, mighty rocks, cultivation areas and more are just part of the experience. Be welcomed by real villagers in real villages, share a moment of their life, taste their food and get to know them.

In the tour 'Boating in Unnichai', you will leave the coastal area to reach rural villages.

As you proceed inland, depending on the season, you will be able to observe the farmers and cultivation areas, paddy fields or vegetable gardens. You’ll make a stop at a local Hindu temple and feel its peacefulness. When reaching Unnichai, you’ll be free to bathe, walk, chill out around its immense water tank or observe the buffaloes and birds around. After a village lunch in a family, local boatmen will take you on board in their traditional fishing boats for a ride on the tank. Enjoy the beautiful simplicity of village life…
